Your an apologist, everything no matter how bad is somehow due to other factors out of their control. Funny that as I have said my friends are all black/mixed race but it is only me who has seen the inside of a prison, on remand I might add and fully cleared due to self defence(me vs 3 others, but I had a bar). We all got jobs/our own businesses, none of us had money in our families, so we had to go through all the same stuff growing up, lack of opportunities etc. I was expelled from school at fifteen but I have always worked and now have my own company. I certainly would not go to another country and believe that a job is MY RIGHT, you have to put a bit of work in.
You say go to other countries and look there, BUT this is a thread about London. I personally can see it just going further downhill which is a shame.
No I am not, most of the factors that I have mentioned are within the control of communities. Not sure of your point about the prison because to me that just says that it doesn't matter what colour you are or what country you or your ancestors originate from you can still both be an unsociable little scrote and/or make something of your life. No apologies here but breaking the culture you are born into is very hard (too hard for some) to manage. Which explains (not excuses) the cycle of unemployment an the dole scrounging culture that exsists in many areas. If no one in your family or social group has worked for generations then what role models are there for you to follow. Unfortunately we conditioned by our families and to break that conditioning is hard.
Luckily for me my family are lefty, Guardian reading, hand wringing, tree huggers. So I can enjoy my life, help and empathise with others and not judge them by their race.
